• Impressive followup to the otherwise overlooked film adapted from the classic TV series has the members of the Starship Enterprise facing a familiar foe from their past who plans to get rid of Kirk (Shatner) and the rest of the starship crew out of revenge. Stellar performances, especially a powerful one from first-timer Kirstie Alley, along with excellent pacing and good special effects make this entry the most exciting of the series.
